I voted for the SNP amendment to abolish the punitive 2-child benefit cap which was sadly defeated by the Labour members. Labour said it will put the country first & party second but their MPs were forced to put Party first & poor children nowhere. #childrenfirst #no2poverty

I have joined other independent MPs in writing to the Foreign Secretary, reminding him of the government's obligations under international law and urging him to follow through on his pledges by taking immediate action to stop the killing and support international justice.

Today was one of the happiest days of my life as I took the oath of allegiance to the King & his heirs and I officially took my seat in the House of Commons as the MP for Dewsbury & Batley 😊. I'm here to help all the people of Dewsbury and Batley, and our country as your MP.

Together with my independent colleagues, I have written to the MPs who were unfairly suspended for putting child poverty & country above party. All MPs must hold the government to account & we look forward to working with all those who are here for people & country, not party.

The government must be consistent in its treatment of all forms of bigotry and racism. It must take strong and immediate action to hold those responsible to account, and to strengthen legislation on racism, anti-Muslim hatred and incitement to violence.

In response to the alarming violence against Muslims and minorities - I've signed this joint letter to the Home Secretary requesting an urgent meeting! The government must work with representatives of all groups being attacked if its serious about defeating all forms of racism.

I support the 1000+ cultural icons who condemn the 'insane' prison terms for the #WholeTruthFive (WTF). The @AttorneyGeneral must meet with @ChrisGPackham & @DaleVince to end this madness 📢 Read the full Open Letter and sign up for action here 👇

Public transport in Dewsbury & Batley is unreliable & not fit for purpose. Vulnerable people cannot get to/from work & can get stuck for hours due to delays/cancellations. As the MP for Dewsbury & Batley I will fight for better & greener public transport. #imohamed4mp

Attended the Help the Homeless & Vulnerable event in Batley organised by Purpose of Life. It is unacceptable that so many people across the UK, do not have a roof over their head, clothes on their back or know where their next meal will come from. #voteMOHAMED #imohamed4mp

I was welcomed at the Community Cafe at Thornhill Lees Community Centre where I met senior citizens enjoying their hot cooked food. Had great conversations about the long waiting times & deterioration of the NHS/Dewsbury Hospital, the cost of living crisis and many other issues.
